Chicago Bird Migration Monitoring Network

The Chicago Bird Migration Monitoring Network is a collaborative effort to track the movements of migratory birds through Chicagoland. We use acoustics, thermal imagery, radar, and other technologies to advance scientific understanding while bringing knowledge and awareness of migratory birds to new audiences.
